British Prime Minister David Cameron held talks in Pakistan, seeking a "fresh start" in relations with Islamabad, nine months after the accusation of turning a blind eye to terrorism. Britain and Pakistan have an "unbreakable" bond that can be strengthened through more cooperation on counterterrorism, boosting trade and improving Pakistan's education sector, Cameron said during his visit.

Fresh start . . . Why Not! Pakistan and Britain have a long history. They can both benefit from a fresh productive start with mutual respect and credibality. It is possible!

It is a good gesture for Pakistan. Cameron visit to Islamabad shows the geostrategic importance of Pakistan in the region and for its indispensable role in maintaining world peace. I think humiliation and slavery is the result of our non visionary policies as an political actor and due to institutional inefficiencies at home.
